Non-common path aberration compensation and a dark hole loop with a pyramid adaptive optics system: Application to SAXO+
C. Goulas, R. Galicher, F. Vidal +16
In ground-based high-contrast instruments, non-common path aberrations (NCPAs) limit detection performance, as they are unseen by the adaptive optics (AO) wavefront sensor but impa…
